"Just a quick formatting note. You're hitting return/enter every 10-12 words or so for some reason. The forum has its own word wrap ability. You don't need to do that - you just end up with that weird column of words. You can trust the forum to wrap text for you. Just hit return when you want a new paragraph. It's a WYSIWYG editor - What You See Is What You You Get."
I'm having an awful time that my text is being obscured by the toolbar for the emoticons and that the text is going on beyond the pane of the text window. So the only way I can see what I'm writing when I start a new thread is to do the awkward line breaks. I'm having this problem in both IE and Chrome. Apologies. (It doesn't occur in my Quick Reply boxes, however.)
Concerning judging the system too harshly too soon... Yes, I am aware that it's soon to judge 5e based only on what has been released so far. But this is a very weak launch lineup, in my opinion. I don't know how Kobold Press's material got past quality control, and it looks badly on the rest of the edition's offerings if WotC will just slap them on the back and say "good enough effort there, guys."
The maps are terrible, the storyline is incomprehensible, the plot is baroque and needlessly complex, the encounters are poorly designed. The book's binding is falling apart, the print quality of the maps is muddled and featureless.
As D&D fans, we have little content to look forward to. In previous editions we've had adventure paths, setting books. Now there's nothing official ... some third party stuff that (if it's like the Kobold stuff) is better off ignored.
